Flap fairing missing colours

Has anyone noticed that some planes, mostly the A350, are missing their red colours at the tip of their flap fairings? Why do you think this is? It would honestly make a huge difference to the wings if they did have it.

Yeah it’s interesting because the old A380 has them but reworked aircraft don’t 🤔

More times than not on the A350 operators don’t have the red tips on the fairing, looking at pictures Aeroflot, Air Caraibes, Air China, Air France, Air Mauritius, Asiana, Cathay Pacific, China Eastern, China Southern, Delta, Ethiopian, Etihad, Evelop, Fiji Airways, Finnair, French Bee, French Blue, Hainan Airlines, Hong Kong Airlines, Iberia, JAL, LATAM, Lufthansa, Philippine Airlines, Qatar Airways, SAS, Sichuan Airlines, South African, TAM, Thai Airways, Turkish Airlines, Vietnam Airlines, and Virgin Atlantic all do not have the red tip on the fairing. The only airlines that do have the Red tip on the fairing are British Airways, China Airlines, Malaysia Airlines, and Singapore Airlines.

Hm, didn’t know that, but even then, I wonder why the airlines that should have it l, don’t. I wish they did.

yeah. also for some odd reason the A350’s wing view is always less satisfying and less realistic than other reworked aircraft imo. it might be the textures or it might just be me

It’s most likely the textures.
